This event has ended.

Freight+Volume presents Pathways: Herring Cove, an exhibition of new paintings by Dylan Hurwitz. This is Hurwitz’s first solo exhibition with the gallery.

Dylan Hurwitz’s depictions of queer beach scenes radiate an intimacy which is transportive. Pathways—similar to neural connections, to the tracings of human bodies weaving through brush, or the face to face encounters which occur whenever you ask for directions to an unknown place—are Hurwitz’s primary metaphors. The kind of utopian sociability specific to Herring Cove, Provincetown, for example, which constitutes the theme of his current exhibition, prefigures the range of expression that Hurwitz traces out in his paintings. Less portraits or landscapes than poetic dedications to Herring Cove, Hurwitz’s most recent body of work celebrates the experience of loving touch between men, and the power of sex to forge new pathways of intimacy, care, and healing.
